[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3301110, member: 7248"] If you think about cash flow, when these layoffs come around, there is more expense related to the separation in the current quarter than if the company just paid the wages and benefits. What they are trying to do is reduce the future expense and the company can proclaim they have cut cost and can show future growth in the company. Technically, it’s not growth, but the expense reductions usually go directly to the bottom line on the income statement and it looks like there is income growth. This presentation is somewhat deceiving to the normal person and investor. The energy companies and still trying find the balance of expense and energy prices. There will be a lot more consolidation before this industry becomes anywhere near stable. [/QUOTE]
